The new PEAR package HTML_Template_Flexy-0.2 (beta) has been released at http://pear.php.net/. Release notes ------------- Major overhall of engine - Introduction of Lex based Parser. - A real syntax checking Template generator - Ability to do Coldfusion style HTML attributes like foreach="abc,b,c" in TR or any tag. - Automatically converts form elements (INPUT, TEXTAREA, SELECT) contents to suitable PHP code and adds error messages. - docs temporarily at http://devel.akbkhome.com/peardoc2/package.html.html-template-flexy.html Note: Filter features of original HTML_Template_Flexy are now depreciated. Note: This is not backwards compatible with version 0.1! Package Info ------------- HTML_Template_Flexy started it's life as a simplification of HTML_Template_Xipe, however in Version 0.2, It became one of the first template engines to use a real Lexer, rather than regex'es, making it possible to do things like ASP.net or Cold Fusion tags. However, it still has a very simple set of goals. - Very Simple API, easy to learn... - Targeted at Object based systems - default behavior is to display object variables - Designed to allow the documentation of available variables using PEAR standards, eg. PHPDoc comments around object variables - Ability to edit the templates in WYSIWYG HTML editors, without breaking the tags - Extremely Fast, for normal variables and looping (or blocks), both for designing and runtime.
